They started to arrive Friday afternoon… the weekend rally. They were rolling in up to 11.30 pm and carried on coming Saturday morning. Over 80 campervans transformed this quiet, out of season site into the equivalent of an Italian market. The rally came complete with whistley, testing-testing 1-2-3 tannoy. They were, however, most kind and, I suppose in recognition of our being “swamped”, brought us all kinds of wine, food & cake during Sunday’s communal lunch.
Monday. Today we went by train to Venice. Venice has all the worst and best elements of a top tourist attraction. Yes, crowds, high prices, shops full of souvenir tat but in a unique setting of islands & canals, incredible architecture on a huge scale and the sense of living history as it’s a working city. It adds up to a thoroughly good day out!
